If the font size on your BlackBerry Storm is too small or large, you might have trouble viewing Web pages or reading emails. To resolve these types of issues, use your BlackBerry's accessibility options to adjust the font to a comfortable reading size. You can change the font size for the BlackBerry's Internet browser, general display or both.

Web Page Font Size

Select "Browser" on the BlackBerry's home screen.

Press "Menu," and then select "Options."

Press "General Properties."

Select "Default Font Size," and then choose a font size. Your BlackBerry will use this setting if a Web page doesn't specify a font size.

Select "Minimum Font Size," and then select a size. If a Web page uses a smaller font size than the one you selected, your setting will override it.

Press "Menu," and then select "Save Options."

Display Font Size

Select "Options" on your phone's home screen.

Press "Screen/Keyboard."

Select "Font Size," and then choose a different size. This changes the font for emails, text messages and menus.

Press "Menu," and then select "Save."

Tip

You can also change the font style for your phone's display and Web browser.
